Table explanation


This table contains information about the average distances for residents of the Netherlands from their home address to the nearest facilities (e.g. school, GP or library). In addition, the table also includes information about the number of facilities located within a certain distance from the residential address. These data are calculated as an average over all persons in the area.
The data are available per municipality at district and neighbourhood level, as of 1 January.

From 2022, the calculation of distances from addresses to the (nearest) facilities has been improved: from then on, driving directions are taken into account when determining the routes and distances from addresses to the (nearest) facilities. In previous years, this did not happen or only to a limited extent.

Data available for 2023

Status of the figures:
The figures in this table are preliminary. Once all variables in a reporting year have been published as ‘preliminary’, they will be made final at the next publication moment.

Changes per April 2025
The figures for all provisions for reporting year 2023 were recalculated following the introduction of a new version of the required software, which included a different method of rounding compared to previous years. Various improvements and corrections were also made to the road network.
For the whole of the Netherlands on average, distances have decreased by up to 0.1 km. For some municipalities, the distances decreased by up to 1.2 km. For some districts and neighbourhoods, distances decreased by up to 4.6 km and increased by up to 2.3 km in other districts and neighbourhoods.

New figures on the following facilities have been added to the table:

Hospitality sector
Cafeterias, etc.
Hotels, etc.

When will new figures be released?
No new figures are expected for this table.
